## Summary

Qualifications Wales, a public authority operating under Welsh devolved regulations, has awarded contracts following an open procurement process for "Qualifications Reviewers for Travel, Tourism, Hospitality and Catering Qualifications". The procurement, which began between Spring and Summer 2026, sought individuals with subject expertise to collaborate with the Approvals Team. The contracts, each with a three-year duration starting from 1st February 2026 and ending on 31st January 2029, include a renewal option subject to performance. The procurement method employed was an open competition, and the total awarded contract value was £108,000 GBP. The procurement stage has been completed, and multiple suppliers, primarily small and medium enterprises (SMEs), were engaged, making this an active phase in the procurement timeline.

This procurement process opens significant opportunities for SMEs specialising in educational services, particularly those focusing on travel, tourism, hospitality, and catering. With contracts awarded based on the quality of expertise in these areas, businesses with a strong knowledge base and experience are well-suited to benefit. The contract spans several suppliers, allowing for collaborative and diverse business partnerships. As the activities relate to developing and approving qualifications, enterprises involved in educational consultancy, training, and curriculum development will find ample room for growth and innovation. This tender offers lucrative opportunities for businesses looking to make a substantial impact within the UK education sector.
